Developer Tools & APIs
Build Automation apps using Developer Tools and APIs for .NET, web technologies, native iOS and Android mobile apps, and using a REST API for devices and applications on any platform. Developers can create automated configurations and deployments of OAS-based systems, and even custom device or protocol drivers for integration with proprietary systems using the Universal Driver Interface SDK.
Infinite Possibilities
The OAS Platform includes a wide variety of Developer Tools and APIs to allow you to create applications and system integrations to execute in any environment.
.NET Developers have access to assemblies for creating data integrations and automations. The .NET Core Components to allow .NET developers to even create native iOS and Android apps using .NET Core.
Developers in any environment can easily create cross-platform applications using the OAS REST API for real time and historical data read/write as well as automated OAS Platform server configuration. The OAS SDKs and APIs allow system integrators to build applications which roll out new OAS installations, saving thousands of man-hours.

Automated Configuration
Using our components and APIs, the OAS Platform configuration itself can be automated. This allows for the creation of applications that can build and manage OAS tag configurations and more.
Custom Integration
All tag data, Trends, Alarms, and more can be processed in real time through these interfaces, opening a world of data integrations to developers.
Cross-Platform
Whether you work in .NET, Python, NodeJS, or virtually any development environment, OAS supplies APIs and SDKs that allow full control over your installation and live data feeds.
Developer Tools
.NET Data Connector
Create custom integrations, headless data feeds, or even automate the configuration of an OAS service. Using the .NET Data Connector any C# or VB.NET application can take advantage of the OAS service.
.NET Core for Native Apps
Native mobile applications for iOS and Android can be built using the OAS .NET Core Components. Apps can be deployed to the Apple App Store for iOS or Google Play Store for Android.
Universal Driver Interface
Create your own communication drivers using C# or VB.NET and define custom interface and tag properties. This SDK is easy to use and deploy and free of charge to develop unlimited numbers of drivers.
REST API
Any application code capable of executing HTTP calls can communicate with an OAS service to read and write tag data, as well as read trend and alarm data. OAS server configurations can also be managed through the API.
Common Use Cases
Application as Data Source
Use the .NET Data Connector, REST API, or Universal Driver Interface to make your application a live data a source for OAS.
Share Industry 4.0 Data with Application
Utilize the .NET Data Connector or REST API to subscribe to OAS tag data from either local or remote OAS Edge nodes. Values are provided when there is a change in data.
Send Application Data to Industry 4.0 Sources
When data writes are conducted on OAS tags utilizing the .NET Data Connector or REST API, the corresponding values are transmitted to the data source associated with the tag. This process facilitates the seamless sharing of data with Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs), OPC servers, MQTT brokers, Sparkplug B, and various IoT cloud systems.
Live User Interface
Unlock the full potential of your application’s data with our dynamic cross-platform UIEngine, create Windows Desktop applications with WinForm HMI or WPF HMI, or integrate data into your existing web application with Web HMI. Learn more ..

OAS Platform Features
Cross-Platform Support
The OAS Platform supports multiple operating systems and deployment options including Windows, Linux, Docker Containers, and can even run on low footprint devices such as a Raspberry PI 4.
Networking
OAS is an edge solution that offers flexible networking options for standalone installations, multi-tenant data aggregation, and even secure unidirectional data transport.
Programmatic Setup
Utilize our .NET SDK or REST API for flexible and automated setup, ensuring full integration with your asset management software. You can also import and export CSV files, which helps you work with Excel and third-party applications.
Calculations, Time On, Counts, and Totals
Merge data from various controllers and additional data sources while performing real-time computations and logic processing, all without the need for coding. Monitor the duration of activities for specific points and the frequency of their transitions over a defined period. Aggregate analog values both daily and over the entire timeline.
See How We Compare
The initial cost of OAS is far less than our competitors – but the savings don’t stop there. We work with OEMS and System Integrators to provide perpetual licenses with quantity discounts with flexible tag pricing and unlimited client connections.
